Fixtures & Water Heaters第 64 / 120 题
Under the International Plumbing Code, what is the minimum clear space required in front of a water closet, measured from the front edge of the fixture to any wall or obstruction?
a.15 inches
b.21 inches
c.24 inches
d.30 inches
解析
The IPC requires 21 inches of clear space in front of a water closet, lavatory, or bidet, although some jurisdictions and the UPC require 24 inches. 15 inches is the side clearance from the centerline, not a front dimension. 30 inches is the center-to-center spacing between two closets and has nothing to do with front approach space.
